Kanifnath Temple

It is the oldest temple in the Shirdi. It is dedicated to Sri Kanifnath, one of the nine leaders of the Nath cult. A distinguishing feature of the Naths is the maintenance of a dhuni.From the Kanifnath Temple we turn right along the main road and make our way to Lendi, again on the right. Now the area is peppered with small stalls selling trinkets and snacks, but Baba's time it would have been virtually empty. Baba sometimes stopped at these temples which he passed every day on his way to lendi gardens.
